Synchronizing rules and signatures in an IMAP account?

Hi,
I have several rules in Mail that control where emails from certain people are stored. How do I apply these rules to my IMAP account so that when I login through my browser based webmail interface, I see an identical file structure?
Also, how do I use signatures if I'm not checking email through Mail. Is this possible?
Thank you!

neither of these is possible. Mail rules and signatures are stored locally and are only usable in Mail.app.

I resaved a draft email in yahoo mail on my ipod touch and it just disappeared - how do I get it back? And why did this happen?

You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

Mail Inbox and Sent box disappeared

The Inbox and Sent boxes appear empty and do not respond. Trying to move messages from other boxes to the Inbox results in a message saying the box does not exist.
Not able to send or receive mail to the computer. MobileMe works.
Have recovered the last inbox, but cannot move the recovered msgs to the Inbox.
Cannot rebuild the Inbox as that item in the menu is grayed out.
Reindexing the boxes does not solve the issue.
Questions: Is there a fix within the current configuration that does not lose the contents of either box? Would downloading a new Mail app fix the problem and recognize the old mailboxes? If I have to install a new Mail app, where do I get it?
Appreciate any help

all the mail content (but not the headers) in my Inbox and Sent box disappeared.
Setting up the same account twice in Mail is probably what got you into trouble. I suspect Mail simply removed all mailboxes associated with that account without checking to see whether they belonged to the original or the dupe.
Do the disappeared messages from my Inbox, and their attachments, all exist somewhere on my Mac even though I can't see them (I have searched the Library)?
Very unlikely. Try looking in the ~/Library/Mail/ folder (where '~' means "your user folder). See if there are any mailboxes still there that might be appropriate, and try duplicating them to the desktop and then import them into a new mailbox. That's unlikely to work, but you never know.
Is there any utility out there that might help me to find them?
If they're really gone, no. If you have backups, you can restore them from the backup, of course. But without backups, the best you'll be able to do is try a data recovery tool, which is unlikely to give very good results in this case, but would be worth a try if there's no other option.
And what happens to attachments in Mail nowadays, when there seems to be no separate Attachments folder?
Attachments are stored with the message, just like they are sent across the internet as part of the message. They are not automatically decoded and saved as individual files somewhere. That happens when you either open them or tell Mail to save them somewhere.

Mail rules and iCloud

Is there a way of copying mail rules in one mac to keep them alive on my macs after iCloud?
I would appreciate any help,
Thanks!
Mario Lordeiro

I'm using the same Apple ID for both accounts to allow syncing.
I use QUICKEN to track finances. The main reasons I set up two users is to separate fishing club finances from my personal finances and to separate documents. At this point I have decided to combine the two accounts; sort documents; and open separate QUICKEN accounts as needed. I do think that Apple Mail needs attention to correct inconsistencies such as the one I pointed out.
Thank you for your Comments

Deleted mail rules and they are still being applied

I created a few mail rules to change the colour of certain emails from different senders. I then deleted the rules and the emails are still colour coded differently and I can't seem to reset it.
Anyone run into this before on 10.6.2?

Hi,
Try restarting your Mac. If that doesn't help...
Go to the Mail Menu Bar, click Mail/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab.
Quit Mac Mail.
Go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.mail.plist to the Desktop.
Relaunch Mail.

Mail rules and Iphone

Hi, I use Mail on my Mac with rules set up to automatically sort my messages into folders as they arrive. Problem is that once a message is moved into a folder, it never arrives onto my phone. I can see messages that aren't set up to move from my top level Inbox, but not those moved due to rules. Is there any way i can use the rules and still have the messages on my Iphone? Right now my only solution seems to be to quit mail each time I walk away from my desktop but sometimes I forget.
thanks!
cindy in indy

On your iPhone mail with rules will go to your "All Mail" folder while Mail.app is running. When mail.app is closed they will all go to your inbox.
Are you using gmail with IMAP? If you are then you can mirror the rules you have set up on your mac to be identical in the gmail server. I believe this will make your iPhone look like your mac does with the "labels" becoming folders. I have not tested that, so try it and see if it works.

Press "audio" in "media" and iDVD just disappears/shuts down

Hello folks,
This problem is perplexing me and I couldn't find something similar on previous posts.
I am trying to add audio to my DVD (photo and video is working fine) and when I click the audio button in the media area, the whole iDVD just disappears.
Can anyone help me with this? Also I'm having problems with adding music to my iPhoto slideshows, when before I had no problem.
can they be related?
Many thanks in advance...

the whole iDVD just disappears.
This frequently helps solve some problems. Quit iDVD. Search for the file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and trash it. (A new one will be created next launch of iDVD.) Or look in: User/Library/Preferences. This may solve project loading errors too. Restart and use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions.
You'll need to reset some Preferences.

All Email Accounts and Emails Just Disappeared?!?

Hi guys. I'm not super tech-savvy, so my apologies if this is a quick and easy fix.
I've been using Mail since I got my MacBook in late Dec 2007. Never really had any serious problems -- until just now.
I was trying to quit Mail when the screen froze. So I shut down the computer and then re-started. Once it was up and running, I opened Mail, only to find that my three email accounts were gone, along with all of my emails. It was as if I had opened Mail for the first time.
Using Spotlight, I was able to find all my emails somewhere on the hard drive. Obviously, I would like to get them -- and my accounts -- reintegrated into Mail.
Any and all help/advice you guys might be able to offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Russ,
Could be that the Property List file has gotten corrupted. Try the following:
Close Mail
Move the file com.apple.Mail.plist from folder <home>/Library/Preferences to the Desktop
Re-start Mail
Mail will behave as if it is a new installation so create your primary account.
Create any other accounts you have in the normal manner via Mail Preferences.
Your Messages are stored in the folder <home>/Library/Mail/Mailboxes and whatever structure you had in terms of folders and subfolders under the Mail window sidebar heading of "ON MY MAC" should be there.
If Mail has not already found those messages as a result of you re-creating all your email accounts then you can import them using the following method:
Close Mail
Drag the folder <home>/Library/Mail/Mailboxes to the desktop
Launch Mail
Click File then Import Mailboxes
Click Mail for Mac OS X
Click Continue
Select the folder you moved to the desktop
Click Choose
Click Continue

Mail 6 DID NOT save my rules and signatures: how do I get the RULES back?

When I had the UNFORTUNATE idea to switch (that is to DOWNGRADE imho) from 10.6.8, the new Mail, among the MANY PROBLEMS IT CREATED TO ME (see my other posts about blocked plug-in messages, etc.), DID NOT care at all about saving my signatures and rules.
I found the signatures as webarchives in user/library/mail/v2/mail data/signatures, and just clicked on each one and did LOTS of TIME CONSUMING copy-paste to CREATE new signatures from within mail preferences.
I wasn't able to do the same for the MANY rules I had.
Also, in the previous Mail, it was possible to simply do a command-f inside the To or Bcc fields to check if I had forgotten someone. Now it is NOT POSSIBLE any longer. Anyone knows ho to re-establish that possibility?
Any help would be appreciated.

I went back to the MUCH BETTER Snow Leopard and I have NONE of the problems I encountered with the windoz-like "lions", I have my fast and perfectly functioning computer and system with 10.6.8

Mail Rules and Forwarding

I use Mail on my iMac to receive mail from a number of accounts - POP3. On one account I have a Rule set up which forwards received mail to a web mail account. The account Inbox in Mail shows the incoming message and it can be opened. It then shows an arrow next to the message. Clicking on this does not state that the message has been forwarded. Instead it gives an error message "Mail was unable to find your response ....." Why is this and can it be fixed?

It looks as though I have maybe solved the problem. I just kept forwarding each one to aol_phish abuse, one after the other. It took about an hour a day just to do this. For four days. I was half expecting to be reprimanded by aol. I was not. And this morning I got up and instead of 16 or so, there were three. That was hours ago and no more have appeared.

Mail in my inbox just disappears after a few weeks, why?

Mail in my inbox stays there for a few weeks and then disappears, only leaving me a few weeks worth of messages - similarly on my .mac webmail. Can't find any preferences to stop this happening.
Any Ideas?

The same behaviour does not happen with the iMac and so
I use this as backup.
Well, it doesn’t happen there because it stores mail locally instead of on the server but, interestingly enough, the iMac is almost certainly the culprit. What are your Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Remove copy from server settings there?
I never changed the iMac .mac account from POP to .mac as I
would have had to delete the account and create a new one
and would have thus lost everything.
This isn’t entirely correct. For one thing, you don’t have to delete the POP account first. You can set up the account as .Mac without deleting the POP account, transfer your mail from the POP account’s mailboxes to the .Mac account’s mailboxes, and delete the POP account afterwards. Alternatively, you could create custom “On My Mac” mailboxes and move your mail from the POP account’s mailboxes into them before deleting the account.
Before doing anything, however, be sure to quit Mail and make a backup copy of the ~/Library/Mail folder, just in case something goes wrong. You can do this in the Finder by dragging the folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is locally stored.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user's home folder.

I have photoshop elements 6, and it just disappeared 2 days ago........??

I have had photoshop elements 6 for years and use it regularly. It disappeared in front of me 2 days ago, Now what do i do? I have the original cd, and have tried to upload it again, but to no avail......
Now what? SINCERELY
Nicole Ramirez

Glad it worked. Most modern versions of PSE can coexist quite happily, but v2 is pretty old now and I guess it conflicted with 6.
Provided you entered your serial number, the software should be activated. The 'website unavailable' probably relates to the fact that PSE v6 to v10 used to integrate with an Adobe online service called photoshop.com. That was closed down last year, but of course the software still tries to log you in to it. Just ignore the login prompts and carry on using the software.
Current version is v12. Before buying download and install the thirty day trial from Adobe and see if you like it. It is a radical change in interface from v6. If you decide to buy, you will find usually it cheaper from online retailers. You won't need to uninstall the trial, just enter the serial number when the trial expires and it prompts you to register. v12 integrates with Adobe's new online service - Revel.

Neale
